Chapter 20, Problem 119
Polonium-210, a naturally occurring radioisotope, is an alpha emitter, with t1/2=138 d. Assume that a sample fo 210Po with a mass of 0.700 mg was placed ina 250.0-mL flask, which was evacuated, sealed, and allowed to sit undisturbed. What would the pressure be inside the flask (in mmHg) at 20 degrees Celsius after 365 days if all the alpha particles emitted has become helium atoms?
